With the San Sebastian College – Recoletos Manila being at a point of redefining its identity – which would ultimately lead to a reaffirmation or edification of its mission and direction – the Center for Culture and the Arts poises itself both as an ally and a leader in treading the path for the institution.

At this point, when the institution is about to turn 75 in 2016, it makes one feel that one is about to get invited to a grand ballroom celebrating a beloved lady’s entry into the first stages of adulthood. 2016 must stand witness to the introduction to the society of this new debutante: SSC-R Manila. There are so many exciting probabilities for her; thus, our preparations.

The CCA launches the Stags C.A.R.E. Program or the Culture, Arts, Research, and Extension Program. The program hopes to create various linkages with and among various stakeholders – alumni, students, parents, faculty and staff, administration, individual and industry partners – producing a strong web of connections.

If you are willing to get involved, you shall become an essential part of this historical moment for San Sebastian College – Recoletos Manila.

If you are willing to get involved, you may communicate with any member of the various repertory arms of the Center – San Sebastian Jammerstags, San Sebastian Recollect Dance Troupe, Sebastinian Arts Society, and the SSC-R Manila Singers Ensemble – or contact the office:

The CCA hopes to accomplish the following projects under the Stags C.A.R.E. Program:

The Kenosis

The statue that is to be seen as a paradigm for all Sebastinians shall be erected at the entrance of the iconic building of the College of Law.

Golden Stag

The school has always prided itself as the Home of the Golden Stags. It is only fitting that one must expect to see a symbolic statue of this Golden Stag that carries Sebastinian memories and aspirations.

Bulwagang Sebastino

This particular project aims to transform the various hallways of the Tanghalang Diego Cera (College Auditorium) into a gallery that may serve as repository of Sebastinian history and heritage.

Repertory Building

There are projects meant to develop the various repertory arms of the institution such as the San Sebastian Jammerstags, San Sebastian Recollect Dance Troupe, Sebastinian Arts Society, and the SSC-R Manila Singers Ensemble.

Cultural Researches

Because of the dearth of cultural researches in the institution, it has become an unexplored fountain of research materials.
